<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I've been reading articles and forums lately on the college admission processes and, obviously, how/what you need to get into colleges such as Harvard. I've been following the typically instructions, (like taking leaderships and so forth) however I have one problem. I have multiple extracurriculars under my belt, including being the president of a few (all of which display a focused interest in writing and community service), and done well thus far. But, my main issue that I worry can weigh me down with my possibilities of getting into Harvard, or any other Ivy League, is me not taking a few honors courses (and considering I go to a very difficult and challenging schools, I suppose this would be considered almost the equivalent of AP courses to other schools). This is also paired with lower math levels, at least for the moment. I have been put on a schedule that would (if everything works out) allow me to skip two math books, pushing me from graduating with Honors Pre-Calc to AP Statistics. So, the purpose of this post, really, is that: will my chances at Harvard be affected by not taking these few (three total) honors courses and being at a lower math for the moment, and will I have just as, if not more, of a possibility of getting in with far more extracurriculars and community service hours over just a few honors classes and lower math classes (for the moment).</p>
<p>Please let me know what you think!</p>
